  • Physical activity intervention for non-active adults from economically challenged families : "Will for movement and movement for will"
    Cecić Erpič, Saša ; Prevc, Petra ; Tomažin, Katja
    Due to the recent socio-economic crisis, the poverty rate in Slovenia is increasing. Not only a high unemployment rate but also working in low-paid jobs can often lead to poverty and social ... exclusion. In economically challenged families where adults are trying to provide resources for family members, their everyday life often revolves around negative and unpleasant experiences. Low socio-economic status (hereinafter referred to as SES) and limited resources often lead to unhealthy and inactive lifestyles. One of the aims of the project was to create a physical activity intervention to promote an active lifestyle and through that an improvement of the quality of life. "Will for Movement and Movement for Will", a 15-week long physical activity intervention, was developed for the project. Besides increasing physical functioning, strong emphasis in the intervention was placed on the psychological aspects related to motivation and determinants of behaviour change. 17 non-active adults (aged from 19 to 66) attended the program. Measures of physical activity were conducted at the beginning and after the end of the program. The intervention, its process and outcomes will be presented and discussed.
